Publisher description
Why create a single faux element - a painted table, wallpaper or window
treatment - when you can design an entire room in faux decor? Without excessive
budgets, this book aims to enable home decorators and artists to swathe their
homes and workspaces in faux fashion. Addressing every element of faux design
and decor, including walls and ceilings, furniture, floors, windows,
collectibles and accessories, it shows how to transform ordinary living spaces
into fabulous fake London flats, charming Tuscan farmhouses and more. Sidebars and photographs illustrate how to "fake it" from floor to ceiling,
with projects including special Galic effects such as trompe l'oeil, glazing
and marbling; striping techniques for walls and ceilings; antique furniture
lookalikes transformed from flea-market finds; floors that recall the
cobblestone streets of New England; and collectibles and accents such as art
prints, fireplaces, trellises and Brittany lace window treatments. Why create a single faux element - a painted table, wallpaper or window
treatment - when you can design an entire room in faux decor? Without excessive
budgets, this book aims to enable home decorators and artists to swathe their
homes and workspaces in faux fashion.
